What I Learned From the Others

Simeon-Islamic Military

I learned the ways Arabs went to war. The various weapons they used and how they coped with the surroundings. I was also very surprised with the clay grenades as well as the guns and different types of swords.

Alon-Geography and Climate of the Arabian Peninsula

From this presentation, I learned that the harsh desert terrain and the very warm climate is the reason people became nomads and constantly traveled in the search for food and water. However, even if the Arabian Peninsula is surrounded in 3 sides water is one of the most rare aspects in the Peninsula.

Ana-Muslim Women

From her presentation, I learned that women were given rights however these rights were modified through the years. Men have way more rights than women and I was very surprised when I heard that men can manipulate and do whatever they want with their wives.

Katja-Islam Extremism

I learned that terrorists have a great influence on the youth and teach the younger generation what terrorism is. I was surprised with the stories and how terrorism can influence the world.

Annie-Trade in Islam

From Annie's presentation, I learned that the Silk Road was the main trade route that linked Europe to Asia. All of the goods were transported using this route. People traded in bazaars and traveled in groups called caravans.

For the other presentations I was not there but I will conclude this post off after I have discovered what the other ones talked about.
